Re: problem attaching to the console on Server 2008

I am running version 1.6 and I can connect to the server 2008. My problem is
that I have to be able to connect to the console, which on servers previous
to 2008 worked just fine with a switch "-0" :

rdesktop *-0* my.server.com

Unfortunately, this switch is not working on server 2008.

"The image of Americans that is reflected back to us by our political and
media process is false. It is us through a fun house mirror, and not the
good kind. We hear every day about how fragile our country is, torn by
polarizing hate. But the truth is we work together to get things done
everyday. Most Americans don't live their lives solely as liberals or
conservatives." - Jon Stewart
